Discovering the reign of God in real life

Divine vs. Human Wisdom

“Years of working with Scripture has taught me that the most explosive divine concepts (for example, continual prayer, complete detachment, a sparing-sharing lifestyle) while they at first seem impossible are seen upon further study to be absolutely correct. It is quite otherwise with human wisdom. At first it has the appearance of truth, but upon further testing and experience it is found to be lacking in only too many cases.”
